Description: | The large white house facing us was one of several shops in Arford at the time. According to Mr Laverty: -Bohanna took Curtis' shop at Arfordgood voice, choir. He was also a coal merchant. The building had in the past been used as a Quaker Meeting House.
The first white house facing us further up the hill is The Birches built for James Allden, who married Henry Knight's daughter. Behind that to one side is Sunnybank, and on the skyline directly behind is Hillborough which Mr Beck built for his retirement.
Just visible among the trees up Barley Mow Hill to the left are Brontë Cottage and Hillside, the latter now known as Little Barley Mow. A track known as The Shambles' leads up to Hearn from the bottom of Barley Mow Hill behind these houseswe assume from the name that animals were slaughtered there at one time. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Rights holder: | John Owen Smith | Subjects: | Curtis Bohanna Charles Beck road house James Allden | Temporal: | start=1906-01-01; end=1909-12-31; | Source: | Sense of place SE | Creator: | John Owen Smith | Identifier: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
